I do not own Mutant X. (Just thought I'd let you know.)
Author's note to thee: If you like the story so far please let me know. Oh and another great thanks to my beta reader.

"Brennan! Shalimar and I are getting ready to go so could you get Jesse to start up the Helix?" Asked Adam.
"No problem Adam," said Brennan.
"Thanks," replied Adam.
"Shalimar are you ready yet?" Asked Adam into his comlink.
"Almost. I'll meet you at the hanger in a minute," came Shalimar's voice.
******************************************************************
"There is absolutely nothing to do here. At least there was always something to do at Sanctuary. I mustn't think of it though. Adam, Shalimar? They're here, in Genomex. Perfect Eckhart will be pleased to see them." Emma stood up and walked out the door. "I know what I'll do." Emma walked till she could feel Adam and Shalimar's presence very close to her.
Shalimar nudged Adam. "There is someone just ahead of us," she whispered.
"Go see who it is. And try not to be seen," Adam whispered back. "Jesse, you need to start doing a better job at keeping us informed on the security's whereabouts."
"Oh, sorry Adam. My mind was on something ells." Came Jesse's voice.
"You stay here then," said Shalimar as she creped silently towards the sound of footsteps on the tiled floor of Genomex. Shalimar peered around the corner. She saw a dark figure walking cautiously toward her. She flattened herself against the wall she breathed silently then looked again. The figure was wearing black. She could almost make out the persons facial features. She kept on watching as the figure got gradually closer and closer - It was Emma - Shalimar returned to Adam. "It's Emma. There was no one with her though."
"Hide, I want to find out what she is up to. And remember whatever she says. She might be faking."
"Ok," said Shalimar. Both her and Adam hid.
"There stressed right out. Good." Emma turned the corner. "I know you're here," said Emma in a nervous voice. "Show yourselves. Oh come on I haven't got all day. I need to get out of here." She paused. "Fine then but when Eckhart finds out I escaped your going to be in very deep trouble - bye now." Emma walked past were Adam and Shalimar were hiding.
Shalimar looked at Adam a pleading expression on her face. Adam nodded. They left their hiding place and Adam said, "Emma we can get you out of here." Emma turned around and her eyes brightened when she saw Adam and Shalimar standing there.
"Adam! Shalimar! I. I am so glad to see you."
"Come on lets go. You can explain every thing when we get back to Sanctuary," said Shalimar. "Brennan we're coming back with Emma."
"Great I'll tell Jesse and just be ready to bolt when you get back to the Helix," informed Brennan.
"Thanks you guys." Emma hugged both Adam and Shalimar before they began there way back though Genomex and towards the Helix.
"Were almost to one of the security rooms. This should be the best place." She made Adam and Shalimar believe their feet were stuck in hard cement.
"Emma I can't move," said Adam.
"That's what I had planed." scoffed Emma.
"Hey you guys there is someone coming your way," warned Jesse over the com link system.
"Emma don't do this. We're your friends," pleaded Shalimar.
"You were," said Emma.
"Emma!"
"Shut up," said Emma as she sent waves of negative emotions to Adam and Shalimar. It was only a matter of time before both Adam and Shalimar had stopped trying to persuade Emma to stop what she was doing. When they were lying motionless on the ground. Emma walked over to the security room and punched in the code to open the door. When the men saw her they stood at attention. "I want one of you to go and get Eckhart and a few of you to come with me."
"Yes ma'am," said the men. One of the men went to get Eckhart. While four other men followed her.
Eckhart was there in a flash. When he saw Adam and Shalimar lying on the ground. He asked how she had done it. All she said was, "I told you they underestimated me. Do you want their rings?"
"Yes. I would like them very much." Emma handed the two rings to Eckhart. "Now lets get these rebels bound and tied. Come with me."
After Adam and Shalimar were cuffed so they could not escape, Eckhart took Emma aside. "So how did you get them on the ground?" Asked Eckhart.
"I guess they came to save me. And like I said, they underestimated me. I simply used my mind to do the rest."
Eckhart looked at Emma with a wondering expression on his face. "Can you show me what you did to them?"
"There's nothing much to show."
"Well then, see that man in the white cote examining Mrs. Fox. Do to him what you did to Adam."
"Are you sure? He could be out for any number of hours."
"Just do it he is of no importance."
"Ok then, you're in charge." Emma sent waves of negative emotions to the man. Like she had done to both Adam and Shalimar before. He was on the ground in a second.
After watching both the man and Emma for a second longer Eckhart spoke. "You did that without you psionic blast. You are just full of surprises."
"I guess I am. Oh and Mrs. Fox will wake up faster than Adam. So she should be up soon."
"You may go. I'll take care of the rest Mrs. deLauro," said Eckhart.
"Thank you sir."
*******************************************************************
"Adam! Shalimar! What's going on? Oh come on answer me," yelled Brennan. "Jesse can you check Adam and Shalimar's rings. I can't get a hold of them."
"Ya, sure just a sec." There was a quick pause then Jesse spoke again. "Their rings have been deactivated. Did they tell you anything else other than that Emma was with them?"
"No, nothing else. Do you think that Emma could have turned on them, I mean turned them over to Eckhart?"
Brennan could hear Jesse breath in deeply before he spoke. "You're probably right."
"I can't believe Emma's doing this. She really has gone bad. Well you're going in, to get Adam and Shalimar out of there."
"I'm not going in there by myself. Emma must have known that they were there. She might know I'm here also. I'm coming back to Sanctuary or if Emma really did betray Adam and Shalimar she won't hesitate to turn me over to Eckhart if she finds me looking around for them. Then you'll be on your own and the rest of use won't even have a chance of getting out with your help."
"Hey, I could get you guys out," said Brennan defensively.
"Sure you could." Replied Jesse sarcastically "Is that before or after Emma finds you sitting at Sanctuary and takes you to him too?" Jesse started the Helix and made his way back to Sanctuary. "Oh Emma have you really done this. I never thought we would be on separate sides. We need you back. I, I need you back. Please don't follow through with this. You're not like this. What has he done to you? Please don't do this to me, to the team. We need you, I need you. Come back to me, to us." A single tear formed in his eye then slid down his cheek only to drop onto his shirt as he leaned back in his chair and set the Helix on auto-pilot.
When Jesse walked into the room where the computer was. Brennan said happily, "Hey look over here at what I found." It turned out to be Emma's profile for Genomex. It said that she was a former member of Mutant X and that she was second in command.
When Jesse was finished reading he said, "I can't believe this."
"Well you have to believe it. Emma really is taking orders from Eckhart. She has finally flipped. I wonder what pushed her over the edge."
"Brennan! Emma hasn't flipped. There has to be a reasonable explanation for her actions. Would you stop talking like that?" Jesse yelled.
"Sorry I was just saying what I thought."
"Do me a favour, keep your thoughts to yourself. Just help me figure out what to do now that we're down three team mates."
"Actually we're down to two. 'Cause Emma isn't on our side any more, remember."
"Brennan!"
"What did I do now?"
"Stop talking about Emma like that!"
"Sorry. Can you just cool down a bit though. So we can figure out how to get Emma and the others back."
"Yeah, for once you have a point." Brennan's facial expression was a dead give away that he was not impressed with Jesse's comment. But Brennan never said anything.
***************************************************************
"Only three more members of mutant X left. This is going to be a breeze. I'll just let Mrs. deLauro hand over her team mates and then I'll put her in stasis and save her till I have a guarantied way to control her before she realizes what she has done. Then I will be free to carry out my plans without Adam to get in my way. And the best thing is I won't have to lift a finger." Eckhart began to tap the keys on his keyboard again.
